CLUB WARNING OVER TRIAL OFFERS

Bradford City would like to politely make supporters and members of the wider public aware of some recent fraudulent activity involving invitations for trials and/or contracts with the football club.

The club would advise any person(s) who receives an offer of a trial and/or contract from someone claiming to represent Bradford City to please contact a member of staff at the Coral Windows Stadium first via either e-mail (bradfordcityfc@compuserve.com) or telephone (0871 978 1911) to check its authenticity.

Sadly, the club has received a number of enquiries over the last couple of weeks regarding invitations that have been sent out to potential footballers from agencies claiming to work for Bradford City. These invitations have usually involved people being asked to hand over money up front, supposedly to cover travel expenses, accommodation etc.

Bradford City Football Club would never normally ask for money from a potential trialist/new player in this sort of situation.

who receives an invitation of this nature to please check with the football club first before taking it any further.With this in mind, the club would urge anyone
